The workshop experience
Our studio is nestled east of downtown Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Filled with natural light and exposed brick, we have curated a comfortable and inspiring atmosphere for art workshops, goldsmithing, and handmade jewelry crafting to allow your creativity to shine through. Our artist-led space embodies the vibrant maker culture of Hamilton.
The land of which Hamilton resides are the traditional territories of Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ, Attiwonderonk (Neutral), Haudenosaunee, Mississauga, and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.
Rings from our workshops
STEP BY STEP
We'll start with a morsel of wax and slowly form it step by step into your own personally crafted signet ring.
This is a two part workshop. The first session is working solely in wax and creating your ring, plus your follow up workshop to perfect your ring cast in the metal of your choice - refining your design and polishing it up to proudly wear.
Often asked about
How many people are in each class?
Generally classes are either one or two people per session. We like to keep the class sizes small so everyone gets the attention they need.
More often than not, if someone isn’t coming solo, they have booked the workshop with a close friend, family member, or partner for an anniversary.
Do I need to know exactly what I want to make before our first session?
No! We always encourage doing some inspiration searching before the session but it’s totally not necessary. We have plenty of samples for you to check out during your workshop.
How does payment work?
Payment is split in two chunks. The first is when you book your workshop. This covers all materials and the studio time. The second payment will be at your second session when we know the exact cost of your metal for your pieces. We will give you an estimate of this at the end of your first workshop so there are no surprises.
